Following our own guidelines, SLM should use rollover instead of purely
time-based indices to keep shard counts low. This commit implements lazy
index creation for SLM's history indices, indexing via an alias, and
rollover in the built-in ILM policy.
* Executing SLM policies on the snapshot thread will block until a snapshot finishes if the pool is completely busy executing that snapshot
* Fixes#45594
Adjusts the cluster cleanup routine in ESRestTestCase to clean up SLM
test cases, and optionally wait for all snapshots to be deleted.
Waiting for all snapshots to be deleted, rather than failing if any are
in progress, is necessary for tests which use SLM policies because SLM
policies may be in the process of executing when the test ends.
* Restrict which tasks can use testclusters
This PR fixes a problem between the interaction of test-clusters and
build cache.
Before this any task could have used a cluster without tracking it as
input.
With this change a new interface is introduced to track the tasks that
can use clusters and we do consider the cluster as input for all of
them.
* Rename indexlifecycle to ilm and snapshotlifecycle to slm (#44917)
As a followup to #44725 and #44608, which renamed the packages within
the x-pack project, this renames the packages within the core x-pack
project. It also renames 'snapshotlifecycle' within the HLRC to slm.
* Fix one more import
In order to make it easier to interpret the output of the ILM Explain
API, this commit adds two request parameters to that API:
- `only_managed`, which causes the response to only contain indices
which have `index.lifecycle.name` set
- `only_errors`, which causes the response to contain only indices in an
ILM error state
"Error state" is defined as either being in the `ERROR` step or having
`index.lifecycle.name` set to a policy that does not exist.
This commit renames the ILM package from indexlifecycle to ilm. We have
all come to know index lifecycle management as ILM, the APIs and
settings use ilm, and it would be nice of the package did too. This
commit makes that change.
This commit renames the SLM package from snapshotlifecycle to slm. We
have all come to know index lifecycle management as ILM, the APIs and
settings use ilm, and it would be nice of the package did too. For SLM,
let's use slm for all of these including the package name from the
beginning.
* Allow empty configuration for SLM policies
When putting or updating a snapshot lifecycle policy it was not possible
to elide the `config` map. This commit makes the configuration optional,
the same way that it is when taking a snapshot.
Relates to #38461
* Add Objects.requireNonNull for required parts of the policy
* Expose index age in ILM explain output
This adds the index's age to the ILM explain output, for example:
```
{
"indices" : {
"ilm-000001" : {
"index" : "ilm-000001",
"managed" : true,
"policy" : "full-lifecycle",
"lifecycle_date" : "2019-07-16T19:48:22.294Z",
"lifecycle_date_millis" : 1563306502294,
"age" : "1.34m",
"phase" : "hot",
"phase_time" : "2019-07-16T19:48:22.487Z",
... etc ...
}
}
}
```
This age can be used to tell when ILM will transition the index to the
next phase, based on that phase's `min_age`.
Resolves#38988
* Expose age in getters and in HLRC
This commit converts all remaining ActionType response classes to
writeable in xpack core. It also converts a few from server which were
used by xpack core.
relates #34389
Today we have an annotation for controlling logging levels in
tests. This annotation serves two purposes, one is to control the
logging level used in tests, when such control is needed to impact and
assert the behavior of loggers in tests. The other use is when a test is
failing and additional logging is needed. This commit separates these
two concerns into separate annotations.
The primary motivation for this is that we have a history of leaving
behind the annotation for the purpose of investigating test failures
long after the test failure is resolved. The accumulation of these stale
logging annotations has led to excessive disk consumption. Having
recently cleaned this up, we would like to avoid falling into this state
again. To do this, we are adding a link to the test failure under
investigation to the annotation when used for the purpose of
investigating test failures. We will add tooling to inspect these
annotations, in the same way that we have tooling on awaits fix
annotations. This will enable us to report on the use of these
annotations, and report when stale uses of the annotation exist.
This commit adds constructors to AcknolwedgedRequest subclasses to
implement Writeable.Reader, and ensures all future subclasses implement
the same.

* Add Snapshot Lifecycle Management (#43934)
* Add SnapshotLifecycleService and related CRUD APIs
This commit adds `SnapshotLifecycleService` as a new service under the ilm
plugin. This service handles snapshot lifecycle policies by scheduling based on
the policies defined schedule.
This also includes the get, put, and delete APIs for these policies

* Handle snapshot lifecycle policy updates and deletions (#40062)
(Note this is a PR against the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` feature branch)
This adds logic to `SnapshotLifecycleService` to handle updates and deletes for
snapshot policies. Policies with incremented versions have the old policy
cancelled and the new one scheduled. Deleted policies have their schedules
cancelled when they are no longer present in the cluster state metadata.

* Take a snapshot for the policy when the SLM policy is triggered (#40383)
(This is a PR for the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)
This commit fills in `SnapshotLifecycleTask` to actually perform the
snapshotting when the policy is triggered. Currently there is no handling of the
results (other than logging) as that will be added in subsequent work.
This also adds unit tests and an integration test that schedules a policy and
ensures that a snapshot is correctly taken.

* Record most recent snapshot policy success/failure (#40619)
Keeping a record of the results of the successes and failures will aid
troubleshooting of policies and make users more confident that their
snapshots are being taken as expected.
This is the first step toward writing history in a more permanent
fashion.
* Validate snapshot lifecycle policies (#40654)
(This is a PR against the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)
With the commit, we now validate the content of snapshot lifecycle policies when
the policy is being created or updated. This checks for the validity of the id,
name, schedule, and repository. Additionally, cluster state is checked to ensure
that the repository exists prior to the lifecycle being added to the cluster
state.

* Fix test
* Add API to execute SLM policy on demand (#41038)
This commit adds the ability to perform a snapshot on demand for a policy. This
can be useful to take a snapshot immediately prior to performing some sort of
maintenance.
```json
PUT /_ilm/snapshot/<policy>/_execute
```
And it returns the response with the generated snapshot name:
```json
{
"snapshot_name" : "production-snap-2019.04.09-rfyv3j9qreixkdbnfuw0ug"
}
```
Note that this does not allow waiting for the snapshot, and the snapshot could
still fail. It *does* record this information into the cluster state similar to
a regularly trigged SLM job.

* Add execute to the test

* Record SLM history into an index (#41707)
It is useful to have a record of the actions that Snapshot Lifecycle
Management takes, especially for the purposes of alerting when a
snapshot fails or has not been taken successfully for a certain amount of
time.
This adds the infrastructure to record SLM actions into an index that
can be queried at leisure, along with a lifecycle policy so that this
history does not grow without bound.
Additionally,
SLM automatically setting up an index + lifecycle policy leads to
`index_lifecycle` custom metadata in the cluster state, which some of
the ML tests don't know how to deal with due to setting up custom
`NamedXContentRegistry`s. Watcher would cause the same problem, but it
is already disabled (for the same reason).

Test clusters currently has its own set of logic for dealing with
finding different versions of Elasticsearch, downloading them, and
extracting them. This commit converts testclusters to use the
DistributionDownloadPlugin.
This commit creates new base classes for master node actions whose
response types still implement Streamable. This simplifies both finding
remaining classes to convert, as well as creating new master node
actions that use Writeable for their responses.
relates #34389
Action is a class that encapsulates meta information about an action
that allows it to be called remotely, specifically the action name and
response type. With recent refactoring, the action class can now be
constructed as a static constant, instead of needing to create a
subclass. This makes the old pattern of creating a singleton INSTANCE
both misnamed and lacking a common placement.
This commit renames Action to ActionType, thus allowing the old INSTANCE
naming pattern to be TYPE on the transport action itself. ActionType
also conveys that this class is also not the action itself, although
this change does not rename any concrete classes as those will be
removed organically as they are converted to TYPE constants.

This commit replaces usages of Streamable with Writeable for the

absolutely necessary.

The description field of xpack featuresets is optionally part of the
xpack info api, when using the verbose flag. However, this information
is unnecessary, as it is better left for documentation (and the existing
descriptions describe anything meaningful). This commit removes the
description field from feature sets.
This commit adds functionality so that aliases that are manipulated on
leader indices are replicated by the shard follow tasks to the follower
indices. Note that we ignore write indices. This is due to the fact that
follower indices do not receive direct writes so the concept is not
useful.
Relates #41815
The run task is supposed to run elasticsearch with the given plugin or
module. However, for modules, this is most realistic if using the full
distribution. This commit changes the run setup to use the default or
oss as appropriate.
When the same alias points to multiple indices we can write to only one index
with `is_write_index` value `true`. The special handling in case of the put
mapping request(to resolve authorized indices) has a check on indices size
for a concrete index. If multiple indices existed then it marked the request
as unauthorized.
The check has been modified to consider write index flag and only when the
requested index matches with the one with write index alias, the alias is considered
for authorization.
Closes#40831
Usage of the ILM Move to Step API can result in some very odd
situations, and for diagnosing problems arising from these situations it

parameters.
Also, adds a dedicated logger for TransportMoveToStepAction,
rather than using the (deprecated) inherited one.

Prior to this PR, there is a bug in ILM which does not allow ILM to stop
if one or more indices have an index.lifecycle.name which refers to
a policy that does not exist - the operation_mode will be stuck as
STOPPING until either the policy is created or the nonexistent
policy is removed from those indices.
This change allows ILM to stop in this case and makes the logging more
clear as to why ILM is not stopping.
Previously we only set the latch countdown with `nextStep.setLatch` after the
cluster state change has already been counted down. However, it's possible
execution could have already started, causing the latch to be missed when the
`MockAsyncActionStep` is being executed.
This moves the latch setting to be before the call to
`runPolicyAfterStateChange`, which means it is always available when the
`MockAsyncActionStep` is executed.
I was able to reproduce the failure every 30-40 runs before this change. With
this change, running 2000+ times the test passes.
Resolves#40018
When trace logging is enabled we log the computed steps for a policy. This
commit makes sure that the steps that are logged are in the same order they will
be run when the policy executes. This makes it much easier to reason about the
policy if the move-to-step API is ever required in the future.
It is possible that the Unfollow API may fail to release shard history
retention leases when unfollowing, so this needs to be handled by the
ILM Unfollow action. There's nothing much that can be done automatically
about it from the follower side, so this change makes the ILM unfollow
action simply ignore those failures.
This test should no longer pass when the functionality it is intended to
test is broken, as it now indexes a number of documents and verifies
that the index is staying on the same step until after indexing and
replication of those documents is finished. This prevents the test from
passing if the leader index progresses in its lifecycle during that time.
The SchedulerEngine is used in several places in our code and not all
of these usages properly stopped the SchedulerEngine, which could lead
to test failures due to leaked threads from the SchedulerEngine. This
change adds stopping to these usages in order to avoid the thread leaks
that cause CI failures and noise.
Closes#38875
This commit attempts to remove the retention leases on the leader shards
when unfollowing an index. This is best effort, since the leader might
not be available.
This commit is the first step in integrating shard history retention
leases with CCR. In this commit we integrate shard history retention
leases with recovery from remote. Before we start transferring files, we
take out a retention lease on the primary. Then during the file copy
phase, we repeatedly renew the retention lease. Finally, when recovery
from remote is complete, we disable the background renewing of the
retention lease.
We have had various reports of problems caused by the maxRetryTimeout
setting in the low-level REST client. Such setting was initially added
in the attempts to not have requests go through retries if the request
already took longer than the provided timeout.
The implementation was problematic though as such timeout would also
expire in the first request attempt (see #31834), would leave the
request executing after expiration causing memory leaks (see #33342),
and would not take into account the http client internal queuing (see #25951).
Given all these issues, it seems that this custom timeout mechanism
gives little benefits while causing a lot of harm. We should rather rely
on connect and socket timeout exposed by the underlying http client
and accept that a request can overall take longer than the configured
timeout, which is the case even with a single retry anyways.
This commit removes the `maxRetryTimeout` setting and all of its usages.
`CreateIndexRequest#source(Map<String, Object>, ... )`, which is used when
deserializing index creation requests, accidentally accepts mappings that are
nested twice under the type key (as described in the bug report #38266).
This in turn causes us to be too lenient in parsing typeless mappings. In
particular, we accept the following index creation request, even though it
should not contain the type key `_doc`:
```
PUT index?include_type_name=false
{
"mappings": {
"_doc": {
"properties": { ... }
}
}
}
```
There is a similar issue for both 'put templates' and 'put mappings' requests
as well.
This PR makes the minimal changes to detect and reject these typed mappings in
requests. It does not address #38266 generally, or attempt a larger refactor
around types in these server-side requests, as I think this should be done at a
later time.
